Hello Friends, 
=> corrected version of mail (notes 1 and 2)
Trying to automate the generation of formatted citations with EndNote, I come across a real  
obstacle in FrameMaker: FrameMaker does not recognise the following glyphs as characters  
in Find with Wildcard ? or * : 
ð Latin Small Letter Eth 
 Latin Capital Letter S With Caron 
Ð Latin Capitl Letter Eth 
Ý Latin CapitalLetter Y With Acute 
ý Latin Small Letter Y With Acute 
þ Latin Small Letter thorn 
Þ Latin Capital Letter thorn 
 Latin Small Letter S With Caron 
In contrast, these glyphs are recognised as punctuation with the wild card character | 
With the WildCard sequence \[\[*|*|*\]\] i can find the following temporary references (created  
by EndNote. The names are mostly  artificial): 
   [[LaBonté, 1989 #11]] 
   [[Müller, 1925 #13]] 
   [[èlíü,  #26]]             Note 1 
   [[DuçanÌsídõrâ,  #24]] 
   [[Preußler 1993,  #27]] 
but not these: 
   [[Ðanderðore 1990,  #27]] 
   [[Wýtek 1921,  #27]] 
   [[Þorsteþab 1993,  #27]] 
   [[Ýleegi 1993,  #27]] 
   [[èíüf,  #26]]             Note 2 
Note 1: Found, if the S and/or s caron  are at the begin and end only, since regognised as 
punctuation.
Note 2: Not found, since there is an s carin somewhere in the word.
Since I don't know on which position in the string these characters my occur i see no chance  
to set up a find pattern.  
Do have any ideas?
